Thats great mathkid! Ive havent been by to visit this thread in a while because I honestly dont have any kernel related issues! matr1x 14.5 cfs colors. As always, Thanks!
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] bearsblack:
Nice interview! Lol. I think(if u have time and whatnot), u should get back into rom building.. I LOVED matr1x ROM(what worked at least lol), and how it was different from other cm gb roms.. u always do do great work. Please keep it up! :D

Looking for a little help...I have tried lulz and ondemand, I've tried deep idle enabled and disabled, I have my voltages at 100/1000 and have no OC, but have tried 105% and 110%. Here's my problem. I use NSTools to set CPU, the settings won't stick when I restart my phone, no big deal. It takes like two touches to restart them. But also throughout the day I will check and it changes to lazy, and shows ????? For both values. Is there a script I can run through ROM manager to auto start the correct settings? Its kind of irritating.

Also, I've already tried a fresh install. Twice.

i think i found a winner for stability on my phone!! running BFS 14.5 with the following settings:

scheduler-cfq

governor-lulzactive

min-100MHz

max-800MHz

live oc-100%

deep idle-on

with...

lulactive settings:

cpu load 60%

pump up - 1

pump down - 2

screen off min-4@800MHz

up sample - 15000

down sample - 40000

voltage was -25 across the board...

streams music fine, calls are good, browsing is good, mms good, camera good... didn't test anything else today with those settings but been running it like this for most of yesterday and all of today w/o ONE reboot... battery life is decent but nothing like some people get on here which is leading me to think that my battery is bad :( i'm getting around 10hrs with 20-something % left but this is literally turning off wifi and data when i'm not using it and with under 2hrs of screen-on time... other people claim much better time and i don't read any mention of turning off data and wifi signals to conserve battery...
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
Cool! :)
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] the1dynasty:
sorry, i'm tired to look now... what do those settings mean under the "lulzactive" governor?? i saw someone posted similar setting so i gave it a try... does that thread about kernals/settings explain that part? i didn't check it yet! thanks MK
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
Yes it does ;)

Make sure to download the lulzactive app from market to get even more info... but the settings are there in nstools too
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] FL0OD:
Thanks for posting these I'm going to give them a whirl. Left the voltages alone and left the min at 400 and this is smoking.:thumbup:

°•neXus S4G•°
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] kevincwelch:
Looks like a great setting. You may get a little more mileage out of your battery if you increase the CPU load up to 75-90, though. It may produce a slight lag -- slight. I was using CPU load at 80% and no decrease in voltages with essentially your settings and was getting 12 hours with about 40-60% left on the battery. I also wonder why you are using cfq instead of noop/deadline/sio. The latter are better for SSDs or flash drives.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] rift999:
you also decreased each voltage by 25? I have never changed those before so just checking.

Battery life comparison question:

Running CM7 with CM7's stock kernel my phone was ridiculously fast and under very heavy use the battery lasted a long, long time (12-14 hours).

Just flashed CM9 and immediately after I flashed 14.5 CFS-color.

I have NOT used SetCPU or any other cpu/o.clocking utility.

Now my battery dies after 4 hours of medium use. And it's not really any faster than CM9 stock, which is overall slower than CM7 stock to begin with.

Any similar stories? Remedies? Suggestions? :confused:

Thanks! :D
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
Do the following. Btw it IS faster than the stock kernel, so idk what ur talking about.

1. Change io scheduler to deadline

2. Maybe UV it a bit more... 5 across the board

3. Reduce brightness
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] TheBurgh:
I agree with the others. So far so good with these settings. Thanks for sharing
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] typeadam:
lol I'm sure it's faster.. but I'm also sure I'm doing something wrong that's making it run slower, thus it SEEMS to be slower.. But thank you, I'll try your tips.

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] stu5797:
Amazing work with this kernel! I have been rocking v14 for awhile now but want to upgrade to v14.5.

What does v14.5 colors mean?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
The colors zip has voodoo color with gamma and all. It has richer colors but you might get a green flicker. The original zip has a bit of washed out colors but no green flicker.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] stu5797:
Thanks! I like to pick my own voodoo color settings. Which v14. 5 version should i use?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] kevincwelch:
I believe you can use either...the colors version just has presets that you can change with voodoo.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
Yep, stu do you want to load the multipliers and offsets using an init.d script you mean?

Then either zip works but I would say just use color for easier access to voodoo control color settings
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] stu5797:
Yes. Thank you! But i use rom toolbox to save my script.

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Skunk Ape1:
First of all I want to say that this Kernel is solid as a rock. I just wanted to share my battery life experience.

I am running AOKP_crespo4g_builf 19 & Matr1x14.5 colors (bfs)

Nova Launcher & Red Synergy Theme

Screen Brightness set to automatic

Frozen apps: com.android.sprintmenu, DRM Protected Content, Earth2.0.1, google+, Key Chain4.0.3, Nfc Service, Tags.

NsTools settings:

Active Scheduler - noop,

Backlight Notification - On / Blink on / Max Blink count 750 times

Governor - Lazy

Min CPU freq - 200

Max CPU freq - 800

Deep Idle - On

Screen Off Max freq - On

19 hours, 30 minute and this is with 5+ hours of screen on time. I am very happy with these results.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] joebarkho:
deep idle isnt working with the gummy 6.5 whats up with that?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Skunk Ape1:

Hey thanks mattallica

Btw guys, it seems the 3.2 kernel port is taking some time, so is there anything you guys want in 15.0?

Anything specific? If not, I may just keep waiting or just include the CPU backport from 3.2
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] joebarkho:
So any word on deep idle with gummy? You did work with him for the rom. Lulzactivev2?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] SA-07:
He should be incorporating the bt framework fix as an XML into the rom for deep idle.

Lulzactive is basically v2 so the settings are there in the market app and nstools
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] obsanity:
I don't see anything but back port it, why not. We'll test it.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] KodiakDraco:
I have no idea if this is possible but there are two things I would love to see.

1. Increase backlight on buttons

2. Decrease screen brightness

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Skunk Ape1:
I have a feeling that by changing the setting to make the screen darker would also make the auto brightness go to a lower level as well. I feel that this is too low already. I for one, will place my vote to either do nothing to the brightness or bring the brightness up a tad.

But I'm under the impression that that has more to do with the rom than the kernel. But what do I know.

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] the1dynasty:
i agree with that^^

but i for one will for sure stop using ANYTHING that alters the auto-brightness of the dimmer... i really love how dark it gets... it could get darker for me in some situations... but inverted apps and such help with keeping the brightness down anyways!
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] obsanity:
If you have cm9 settings in your rom try the display dim setting. Math can also adjust using colors but I think dim level is under roms control.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] wctom:
In AOSP's ROM, you can change the brightness of each level of the autobright function. I find this to be indispensaible feature since the native autobright setting is way too dim for me.

It was my daily for close to 3 weeks and it was the 1st ICS rom to run properly on my phone. Now I have found quite a few that work on my phone but aokp_crespo4g_build19 works just as well on my phone as oICSv43 and has more options and tweaks. So that has become me daily driver for now but will continue to watch the oICS thread for updates that add more tweaks and options.

i've been running this kernal for a while and mine doesn't do that... i've charged it to 80's and unplugged with it staying where i charged to... i've even gotten it to 96% and unplugged it and it stayed there...

the battery stats do reset if that's what you're referring to??

Edit - nevermind, found it
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] wctom:
Sure. I'm using oICS v43.

CyanogenModSettings / Display/ Automatic Backlight / Edit Other Levels.

I set the number of levels to 6, enable filtering, and step the screen brightness from 90 to 255. (I like my screens bright.)
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] obsanity:
No. It just resets to 100%. I'm on 14.5 cfs colors. Does the same on my wife's nexus and I just put a clean install on her's.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Shadow Death:
OK, so my phone has mostly been idling with some texting and game playing. I charged it over night about a day ago and took it off the charger yesterday at 11am.

I used the Matr1x 14.5 bfs kernel with peter Alfonzo's (sp?) ice rom. Using the settings post the other day for lulzactive I've gotten this battery life so far.

Keep in mind I usually call BS on people who post times like this because if you charge your phone off the computer it won't reset the timer. This is shockingly good. I half expect my phone to suddenly shut off though. Lol.

I'm not under volting at all. My settings are:

Scheduler: noop

Min Cpu freq: 200

Deep idle: on

Sreen off max freq: on

I've been consistently getting 18-22 hours on my battery with 4.5-5.5 hours of screen on.

I have Facebook, Google Wallet, tags, com.android.sprintmenu, drm protected content and keychain frozen with titanium backup. These items are known battery suckers. If I need any of these, I can defrost them and use at will.

While at work, I turn off wifi and data as I'm not allowed to turn the screen on during working hours. Two days off without pay if your caught. I just turn on my 3g or 4g during breaks and lunch to catch up with any email, missed calls, texts and of course check out my favorite threads.

While this may not be typical for most, I do get anywhere from 4.5-5.5 hours of screen on time. So it's not like I don't use my phone.

do you think it's trying to sync even with data off??
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Shadow Death:
For those curious these are the settings I'm using right now. However I didn't touch the voltages so they are sitting at math's defaults. Also, wifi stays on all the time as I tend to use it often.

These are my results as of now. Keep in mind that I haven't used it heavily over the weekend as I've been around the house. I will continue to test through the week as I use it more actively.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] joebarkho:
Higher cpu should give you better life with deepidle implemented. I read that in ezeekels thread. But do it and get back to us!
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Skunk Ape1:
settings/apps/running if facebook is there it's using battery from what i understand. Look at your battery stats as well and see how what percent it's taking.

It's easy enough to check. Let it run for a day. Then freeze it for a day with titanium backup. Then you can see if your battery life improves. I was seeing close +15% battery improvement when it was frozen over when it wasn't.

I only go on Facebook once a week at the most so it's not that inconvenient for me to freeze it. I have a Facebook account for only 1 reason... That's to monitor my daughters activity there.

I also have a calendar widget but don't see the point in a gmail widget. Gmail syncs without a widget. I get a notification that I have new mail and i click on the notification bar to read it. Don't really see a point in the widget. Just something else to drain the battery.

I do think these items continually check for a connection. Just like if you are in a location with bad service. Your phone will use up more juice trying to find and keep a signal, than it does when you have a strong signal. While I'm not entirely sure this is the case with widgets but it would seem so as I've gotten much better battery life since starting to think this way.
